IBT's

It's a bit more Tales of the City than City of Night at IBT's: Weekend nights there are endless parties, not seedy meat markets. (Well, maybe there's some of that, too.) You can slam "Orange Tic-Tacs" (drop a shot of Absolut Mandarin into a beer glass containing Red Bull) and dance 'til last call on the outdoor patio. You can have tête-à-têtes with drag queens, sidle up to the bi-curious or get feral with the dance floor's requisite pack of body-rocking Latina lesbians. (There's always at least one!) This is the best part of an "anything goes" attitude: Just be your damn self. In other words, straight folks are welcome, too.
